Feb 8, 2017 at 1:09 comment added Journeyman Geek Read one comment above mine.
Feb 8, 2017 at 0:50 comment added Zombo @JourneymanGeek your comment is about that sensible too. Who are you even talking too?
Feb 8, 2017 at 0:34 comment added Journeyman Geek There's no such thing as a "meta" community, outside MSE. Per site metas are a tool for the community to set policy, and handle other such issues. Metas are independant of the main site no more than my room is an independent nation, and the idea of this is roughly as sensible as my spleen being granted personhood. The moment you can vote, and you bother, you count.
Feb 8, 2017 at 0:28 comment added Diminutive Colossus @JourneymanGeek Yeah the community of users with Stack Overflow accounts with enough rep to upvote that follow Joel's twitter feed thought the post was useful, agreed with the post, or just upvoted it because Joel wrote it. I hardly see that as representative of the meta community. The meta community is the community that determines what is on-topic on meta or not. This is like me inviting all of my friends over to your house for a party, then when you complain about it me saying "Well all these people are having fun so it must be right!"
Feb 8, 2017 at 0:19 comment added Diminutive Colossus @Helmar the point is that there were far more close votes than reopen votes. No one would be complaining about the reopen / close if those with binding votes had not used them as binding votes (if moderators had been the fifth voter).

Feb 5, 2017 at 8:31 comment added Helmar The majority of reopenings came by the community itself. Invalidating your argument to a great degree.

Feb 5, 2017 at 8:09 comment added Journeyman Geek The question has a score of 1425 with 425 favorites. Even if the question being closed 25 times was unique folks, it feels like more of the community wanted it than not.

Feb 4, 2017 at 19:25 comment added Alexander O'Mara I'm not sure your really hear to discuss this tag, but seriously, you keep repeating the same tired arguments. You haven't address any of the concerns Tim, Shog9, and others raised about using the blog, or even acknowledged those issues. You are also cherrypicking data about why it should be closed, disingenuously ignoring all the data that says the community thinks differently from you.

Feb 4, 2017 at 19:05 comment added HDE 226868 I'm well aware of that case, @StevenPenny, and I will remind you that, again, there are many more cases where I think the proposed tag could apply. You can list all the meta questions you want which you disagree with, and there will still be others that deserve the tag. This is not a question about Stack Overflow's logo, executive orders, or anything else like them. This is a question about making it easier for SO to discuss things with the community.
Feb 4, 2017 at 18:52 comment added HDE 226868 @StevenPenny Why would an announcement from Tim about a new update regarding, say, Documentation be off-topic? You're focusing on one case here, and not looking at the bigger picture.
